Travel & Accomodations Information
We
suggest using IEEE Travel Services for your travel plans
Airlines:
Greenville-Spartanburg airport is about 1 hour drive to Clemson. Check
airfare rates vs. Atlanta or Charlotte, keeping in mind a Saturday night
stay usually reduces the fare. All three airports are along Interstate
I-85, with Atlanta and Charlotte being at least a 2 hour drive (non-rush
hour) to Clemson. Try to avoid Atlanta during normal rush hours as the
airport is on the south side of Atlanta and Clemson is on the north side.
